Just a heads-up that life has gotten too busy for me to maintain Live Music HQ. That and the fact that I make almost no money from the site and yet have expenses with keeping it running. Therefore, after almost 14 years of life, I am planning to shut down Live Music HQ on January 1st.

If anyone is interested in taking it over completely, and has the means to do so, I'll happily discuss that. Feel free to e-mail me at info@LiveMusicHQ.com with any questions or comments.
